LMAO. As expected, Cyril declares a commission of inquiry for 6 months (that will probably become a year+ like Zondo, that leads to nothing), and only put Senzo on leave, not even a suspension.

As an extra kick in the nuts for the Republic, Cyril appoints an "independent" person as Acting Minister (according to section 91.3c of the Constitution), only to reveal that he used to be ANC MEC for Community Safety in GP.

A ****ing joke...

Oh, almost forgot, and nothing about Nkabane, who's been proven to have lied to Parliament more than once.
 
A very good and a well considered appointment under the circumstances.

Sorry that I'm not jumping up and down with joy...

Cachalia first joined the Gauteng Provincial Legislature in 1994[1] and he ultimately became Speaker of the provincial legislature from 1999 to 2004.[5] In the legislature he represented the African National Congress; he was also a member of the South African Communist Party.[1]

On 29 April 2004, following the 2004 general election, Cachalia was appointed for the first time to the Gauteng Executive Council; Mbhazima Shilowa, then entering his second term as Premier of Gauteng, appointed him Member of the Executive Council (MEC) for Community Safety.
He also served until December 2022 as a member of the National Executive Committee of his political party, the ANC; he was co-opted onto the body in October 2019.
 
Something I noted during his speech was how blasé and tired he was about everything...
You'd think that a President, whose government faces accusations of being infiltrated by criminals, would at least show a bit more gumption. But no... Something something VOTE ANC FOR BETTER LIFE FOR ALL
 
It's the only way he can deal with these allegations though. What would you have had him do?
Actually properly suspending Mchunu and not just putting him on leave would be a start.

And commission of inquiry don't exactly have the best reputation here (HINT: recommendations never implemented).
 
6 months.

More than enough time build 50 toilets, fill 25 potholes and distract the nation with enough bread and circuses that they'll forget the whole thing ever happened.

Am I getting warmer Champster?
